Will any of the what-does-this-say-about-racial-attitudes press accounts to come on the Bennett controversy quote Jesse Jackson from 1977? He said: "Abortion is black genocide...What happens to the mind of a person and the moral fabric of a nation that accepts the aborting of the life of a baby without a pang of conscience?"
No, reporters won't excavate this quote, because Jackson was talking about the Margaret Sanger left that advanced abortion as a tool of eugenics -- and liberals don't want to be reminded of that.
